Sir Francis Bigod
Right, this cottage. It’s called Sir Francis Bigod. It’s in Staithes, up in North Yorkshire. The cottage is part of Seaton Hall, which is a big old manor house. They’ve done it up.
It sleeps four. Two bedrooms, both with their own bathroom. One has a double bed, the other has two singles. It’s a 4 Star place, so it’s comfortable and well looked after.
You walk into the kitchen and dining area first. It’s a nice kitchen, handmade. Through a door is the living room, which has a wood burner. Outside the back is a patio that leads into the estate grounds. It’s quiet. You look out over fields towards the North York Moors.
Staithes is down the hill. It’s a proper old fishing village, very steep. The beach and harbour are about a mile’s walk. There’s a local shop and a couple of pubs nearby. One is about 700 yards, the other is just over 100 yards if you head towards the hall.
From here, you can walk the Cleveland Way along the cliffs. Whitby is about 15-20 minutes by car. You’ve got the abbey, the old town, boat trips. Runswick Bay and Robin Hood’s Bay are close too. Saltburn is up the coast, good for surfing. The North Yorkshire Moors Railway steam train starts in Grosmont, which is also nearby.
You can bring one dog. There’s parking right there. The facilities are all there: washing machine, dishwasher, WiFi, TV, cot and highchair if you need them. All bedding and towels are included.
If you’re planning walks or days out, these sites are useful: North York Moors National Park and National Trust Yorkshire.
